Why is my "Build a Bundle" widget not showing on my online store?

If your Build Your Own Bundle widget is not appearing on your online store, this is typically due to theme compatibility issues or missing widget embed on your page.

Some themes, especially unique themes created by third-party developers (Not Shopify), may not automatically render the Build Your Own Bundle widget.

This guide will walk you through the steps to resolve this issue.

How to fix the Build Your Own Bundle widget to display on the online store

Step 1: Verify your bundle is activated

First, ensure you have an activated Build Your Own Bundle in your app dashboard. You should be able to see your bundle with products configured.

Step 2: Navigate to your theme customizer

1. Go to Online Store in your Shopify admin
2. Click Customize next to your current theme
3. Navigate to Home page
4. Click on Pages
5. Select Default page

Step 3: Check if the bundle page was created automatically

When you create a Build Your Own Bundle, a page called "build a bundle" should be automatically created. You can verify this by:

Looking for the page in your pages list:

1. Clicking Change to see available pages
2. The bundle page should appear in the list

Step 4: Adding the app block to the theme

1. Navigate to the bundle page as described above
2. Click Add section
3. Go to Apps
4. Select Build Your Own Bundle
5. Click Save

The widget should now appear on your bundle page.

Important requirements for the widget to work

Page name consistency

For example:

• If your bundle page is named "build-a-bundle"
• Your bundle configuration must also reference "build-a-bundle"
• The names must be identical for the widget to function properly

Supported themes

Dawn Theme

The Dawn Theme is fully supported and typically works without additional configuration.

Third-party themes

Third-party and custom themes may require manual widget addition as described in the troubleshooting steps above.
